"Pup, for the last time, you don't need to dress up or wear something fancy. We're just meeting my parents." Jaemin sighs, leaning against the doorway with his arms crossed.

Jeno turns to him with a blank look, "exactly," he breathes out. "They're vampires, and not only that, but royal ones." He said to make his point.

"I'm a vampire and a royal one too, but you don't dress up or something for me." Jaemin blurts out, although it did sounded a little weird and could mean something else.

The younger boy pouts and walks up to him, cupping his face. "Are you jealous?" He sneers.

His vampire boyfriend coughs awkwardly, "no, I'm not." He manages to say without stuttering. "But regardless, all I'm saying is you don't need to glam up."

Reaching up to hold Jeno's wrist, he leaves a small kiss on it, "you're already beautiful. Naturally." He said.

The younger boy blushes and looks away, "I just want to make a good impression..." He mumbles shyly.

Despite the fact that Jaemin's parents are literal blood-sucking creatures, or what's mostly called as 'vampires', could kill or spare your life, scary and overall dangerous.

Jeno doesn't feel like treating them differently.

Like Jaemin, he's a vampire and a prince. But Jeno treats him like how he treats his friends.

Humanly.

Sure, they're life-threatening, but Jeno isn't really scared as much as most people thought he would.

Maybe a tad bit, especially when they show their fangs and red glowing eyes with that scary low voice of theirs. Like how Jaemin was or does when he gets angry.

But that's just it, Jeno's scared to make them angry.

Make them angry, make them want to kill you.

Which is funny because before Jaemin admitted he has feelings for the human boy, he was angry or cold 24/7.

Jeno sometimes wonders about how or why he's still alive right now too, he low-key thought Jaemin could've sucked his essence away, soulmate or not.

But maybe the answer was Jeno himself, who knows–

Well, author, Jaemin and some readers might–

Anyways, in Jeno's opinion, Jaemin's parents are just like any other. Even though he hasn't met them, it's not really that much of a difference.

Their morals might be, due to being different beings or supernatural creatures, their nature is not as the same as humans.

But Jeno will respect that. He respects Jaemin's after all.

He feels another kiss on his wrist, making his eyes land on Jaemin again, however his head is still facing away.

"You don't need to impress them by doing all these, they'll be impressed when they see who you truly are." Jaemin states.

"They'll see the human boy I love, my soulmate. No doubt, they'll fall in love with you– not as much as I do but yeah." Jeno giggles at his words.

He fully faces Jaemin again and leans in to connect their lips, "since when were you very well with your words, hyung?" He teases.

The vampire prince rolls his eyes, "I've always had been, just never really voiced it out." He replies.

Jeno smiles and pecks his lips again, "well, I really like it. I like this side of you, so genuine and sweet, very romantic." He comments.

Jaemin shakes his head and moves his hands down to Jeno's hips, "pup, my love, all I said was the truth and how I felt. It's actually so cheesy and disgusting."

"Your love?" He widens his eyes for a second when Jeno mentions it, but shrugs nonetheless.

"Yeah, my love. You're mine, aren't you?" Jaemin repeats with a stern tone, a silly smile on his face after he confirms Jeno's small confusion.

The human boy blushes again, the color pink slowly turning into a shade of red as it also appears down on his neck.

"Y-yeah," he stutters, completely shy and flustered of this side of his vampire boyfriend. "All yours."

He hears a chuckle from the older boy, making him huff and try to regain his composure so he could turn the tables.

He smirks and comes up to Jaemin's face to irk him, "since when were you possessive too?" He teases.

As expected, the vampire boy was a little taken aback and soon clears his throat. "You don't like it?"

Now it was Jeno's turn again, leaning back to scan Jaemin's face if he was deadass serious or not.

He purses his lips, "I didn't say I like it. I was just curious." He responds.

"So you do like it?"

"Well, yeah. I like this," Jeno trails a finger on Jaemin's sharp jawline. "Like I said, romantic and hot. Suits you well, Jaemin hyung."

Rolling his eyes, the older boy pinches his hip making him squeal. "And like what I said, I'm just being honest. It's so cheesy and disgusting."

"Not for me," Jeno remarks with a pout forming on his lips. "I thought you knew that by now?" He giggles.

And that's when Jaemin recalls the times Jeno mentioned what he likes. Especially before they started dating and Jaemin was still in denial.

Jeno was a chatter box everytime Jaemin walks him home, so he'd occasionally blurt things out.

Like how he likes those cliché and cheesy things couples do, for example from the movies he's watched.

He intertwined their hands, linked their arms, kissed Jaemin's cheek, all those cheesy things Haechan even commented about, Jeno finds it romantic.

"What made you show this side of you anyway, Jaeminie hyung?" Jeno asks with a tilt of his head to the side.

The said boy hums and leans closer a little bit, "you." He answers and pecks Jeno's nose.

The human boy scrunched his nose from the sudden touch in instinct and raises a brow, "me?" He repeats.

"You." Jaemin nods and lets out a sigh, "I'll explain another time, but right now, we have to go."

"Are you sure I don't need to–mmph!"

Jeno flinches but soon melts in, wrapping his arms around Jaemin's neck as the older boy reluctantly pulls away.

"Stop, you don't need to. You already look perfect." Jaemin tells him with a look.

Jeno ponders in thought before asking, "My friends asked if I have to cover anything up... Like my bite mark and soulmate mark."

The vampire prince thinks for a moment, scanning the said marks in Jeno's upper body and drawls out a hum.

"No." He replies, "don't cover them up."

"My dear soulmate, why am I blushing again–"

"Pup, maybe you're right, I am starting to become possessive."
